Drug-Coated Balloons: A Safe and Effective Alternative to Drug-Eluting Stents in Small Vessel Coronary Artery Disease.

abstract：:A recent observational study of coronary artery graft (CABG) versus drug-eluting stents (DES) performed in the state of New York reported that CABG was superior to DES for multivessel disease. Our comment provides rational criticism of this study, reviews the data that support a role for DES in the management of multi...
